Swedenborg's "Natural Heaven"

Personally, I see
the natural heavens as comprising of the vast number of people who when given
the chance would lead decent, orderly and other-friendly lives, perhaps with a
lot of good and kind 'feelings' but without going that extra mile to translate Christian
faith and love to proactive action targeted at the good of the others or of the
community. These are people who, when loved will love back, but who do not
actively create love in their environment.
